The writer/director/musician of "Sharknado" and "Sharknado 2: The Second One" has embraced both the sports world and celebrity cameos in his popular made-for-TV Syfy movies. The next logical step, he said, is the sort of well-known character that even a sharknado should fear.

"I think, if I was a shark, I'd be afraid of him," Ferrante said. "I'd think twice about flying into that boy."

Oh, and Shaq? When you report to the set, bring your skates.

Ferrante, in an effort to "continue the sports legacy" of the Sharknado series, said he would entertain the idea of an NHL-themed disaster.

"I think we'd have to do hockey because of the ice," he said. "We've done the stadium thing, and we're good with that. What are the new things we can do? The ice gives you something different.

"There are a lot of different sports we've been thinking about, though. I won't tip my hand. I don't want to get in trouble."
